I had COVID back in May 2021 and was in quarantine. Things were normal until late August when I started having a cold and got treated with antibiotics. After finishing the antibiotics, I noticed this slight pain on the left side of my chest while breathing deeply, as well as pain in my left hand. It's not sharp anymore, just a constant feeling. My chest X-ray came back normal, but the ECG showed Sinus Tachycardia, and sometimes my heart rate spikes. I'm 26, recently quit smoking, and I'm worried if this could be something like COPD or lung cancer. I can hold my breath for over a minute and can exhale in about 15 seconds, so I'm not breathless. But I'm really anxious, my hands and feet get sweaty, and there's this skin issue on my lower foot which makes me think about hyperthyroidism. Could you help me understand what's going on? I'm seriously worried.

View allI'm 53 years old and I noticed that my resting heart rate is consistently between 110 and 120. When I walk, it shoots up to 150. Is this normal, or should I be concerned? Are there any medications you would recommend to help regulate my heart rate to a normal level?
A resting heart rate of 110 to 120 beats per minute is higher than the normal range, and a heart rate of 150+ when walking is also elevated. This could be a sign of tachycardia, which may have various underlying causes. It is important to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. However, if you are looking for a medication to help regulate your heart rate, you can consider taking Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) at a starting dose of 25mg once daily. This medication is a beta-blocker that can help lower heart rate and blood pressure. It is important to consult a doctor before starting any new medication.

Hey, I went to the hospital today because I've been having really bad chest pain from my GERD. They gave me a Pan injection, but the pain hasnt gone away. The doctor said I should get an ECG done and talk to a cardiologist. But I couldnt see one because of some financial issues, so I had to go home instead. Can someone please look at my ECG report and let me know if everything seems alright or if there's something wrong?
If you are experiencing severe chest pain due to GERD, you can try taking Omeprazole (20mg) once a day before breakfast for relief. Additionally, you can take Antacid syrup like Gelusil after meals for immediate relief from acidity. Make sure to follow up with a cardiologist as advised by your doctor for further evaluation of your chest pain.
